Court Procedures Rules 2006

This rule applies if the court makes an order under the Cross-vesting Act, section 8 removing a proceeding from another ACT court or a tribunal to the court.

Immediately on the removal of the proceeding to the court, the court may give a direction, make a decision or direct the parties to take a step in the proceeding that the court considers appropriate.

The court’s powers under subrule (2)—

are in addition to the court’s powers under rule 3308 (Cross-vesting—directions); and

include power to give directions that could have been given by the court or tribunal in which the proceeding was pending.
